The oil does not absorb as much as I wished, but it is a tasty spin on pretzels. My guests admitted that they didn't like pretzels until they had them this way. I will make this again and had many ask for the recipe.

I make this every year for thanksgiving. here are some modifications:
Instead of strawberry I do raspberry Jello and frozen raspberries. They help cool down the jello. Do make sure that the jello is starting to set up before you put it over the cream cheese layer.
I also like to add canned and mostly drained pineapple chunks to the cream cheese layer. I love the extra fruit.
Everyone loves this and sadly, I only make it for thanksgiving. I should make it more often!

Good! I did use less oil and I ended up baking them for like 20 minutes because they were really greasy. The garlic and herb dressing mix is a nice change from the usual Ranch mix I use on pretzels. Thanks :)
